The software provides reports for the following:
•Global - These reports provide data gathered from multiple management servers. For example, if you have three management servers: one in London, one in Tokyo, and one in New York City, you can gather data from all three management servers. To view information for these reports, you must set up global reporting. To learn more, see ”Setting Up Global Reporter” on page 209 for more information.
•Asset Management - These reports provide information regarding assets and ownership.
•Chargeback Manager - These reports provide cost information about the management and storage usage of an element. To populate these reports, enter information for Chargeback Manager, as described in the topic, ”Setting Up Chargeback Manager” on page 638.
